Essential Accessories for Skiing: How to Be Well Equipped for the Mountains

Going on a ski holiday is not just about choosing skis or winter clothing. When staying in the mountains or in a ski resort, it is often the practical accessories that make all the difference in everyday life.

Between cold temperatures, moving around the resort, keeping your ski pass accessible and travelling light, choosing the right accessories helps you fully enjoy your ski trip, without stress or unnecessary hassle.

Essential Accessories to Pack for a Ski Trip

Why Choosing the Right Accessories for Skiing Matters

In the mountains, days are often split between the slopes, walks around the resort, mountain restaurants and après-ski moments. Accessories therefore need to meet several key requirements:

provide warmth and comfort
allow you to keep your hands free
secure essential items (ski pass, keys, phone)
remain lightweight and compact

Well-designed accessories help prevent loss, save time and avoid carrying bulky bags, while adapting perfectly to winter conditions.

A Fleece Neck Warmer: Staying Warm on the Slopes

An essential item for cold weather in ski resorts, the fleece neck warmer effectively protects the neck and lower face from wind and freezing temperatures. Easy to put on, soft and lightweight, it can be worn both on the slopes and while walking around the resort.

It is a must-have accessory for ski holidays, especially in mountain resorts where temperatures can drop significantly.

A Ski Pass Holder: Keeping Your Lift Pass Within Easy Reach

During a ski holiday, your lift pass is used several times a day. A ski pass holder keeps it visible and easily accessible, without the need to search through pockets or bags.

Attached to a jacket or a small belt bag, it makes going through ski lifts quicker and reduces the risk of losing your pass — a real comfort in busy ski resorts.

A Key Necklace: Keeping Your Keys Secure in the Resort

Between accommodation, ski lockers and outings in the resort, keys are constantly in use. A key necklace allows you to keep them safely on you, worn around the neck or stored securely, while avoiding forgetfulness or loss.

It is a discreet but very reassuring accessory, particularly useful during mountain stays.

A Phone Pouch: Protecting Your Smartphone from the Cold

Your phone is essential on holiday: photos, ski maps, contacts and payments. In the mountains, cold temperatures and moisture can damage it. A phone pouch helps protect your smartphone while keeping it close at hand.

Compact and lightweight, it is ideal for skiing or walking around the resort with only the essentials.

A Small Belt Bag: Hands-Free Comfort in the Mountains

Very popular in ski resorts, the small belt bag allows you to keep your essentials with you while keeping your hands free. Ski pass, phone, keys or a compact wallet can all fit easily into this secure and lightweight format.

It is the perfect accessory for moving around the resort, going for walks or enjoying après-ski moments.

The PPMC extra touch: Our belt bags are sold separately from their straps, giving you the freedom to choose between a plain strap or a matching strap from the same collection. This also allows you to change straps without changing your bag, so you can easily vary your looks.

A Glasses Case: Protecting Your Sunglasses in the Mountains

In the mountains, sunglasses are essential due to the reflection of sunlight on the snow. A glasses case protects lenses when they are not being worn, preventing scratches or damage inside your bag.

An often underestimated accessory, yet essential for ski holidays.
